The Climate and Our Community
On Human Rights Day last year, 10th December 2019, Bristol (UK) held a first of its kind city-wide event on climate-induced migration, called The Climate & Our Community. The day intended to be a space for learning and exchange, with an emphasis of participation of community members and leaders from diverse backgrounds. Stories from individuals and refugees with experience of climate impacts set the tone of the day. Citizens of Bristol were given the chance to collectively explore the topics of climate change and migration and what this means in terms of community values.
